|<Pilot>, it's good to see you. I have something a little outside of the ordinary that needs taking care of. A personal business opportunity for the both of us, I guess you could say.

Have you ever heard of Anire Scarlet? Well, she's practically an urban legend among the local pirates. It seems any outlaw with a clone bay and rhetorical skills can amass a following these days. The sorts of degenerates that hang around this area are easily impressed too. It seems Anire has built quite a posse, but then, that could just be another one of the myths about her.

As for where you come in: all this attention has earned her a CONCORD bounty. I'd very much like to claim that ISK, <Pilot>, with your help. I've hired an undercover surveillance team to locate her, and they've had some luck turning up a lead. If you're able to follow it up and take her out then we can split the bounty money equally. The surveillance team found her flagship vessel, The Crimson Dawn. She is sure to be either inside it, or very close by. If you think yourself capable of eliminating her, then I'll trade you the coordinates.

[[File:Capacitor Recharge.png|400px|thumb|Experimental data on capacitor recharge. The blue points are data points from Kivena's experiments.  The black line is an equation based on Dust Puppy's research which you can see at the top left corner of the image. The smaller inset graph (orange) shows a percentage of average recharge rate over current capacitor percentage. You can clearly see that maximum recharge is 2.5x the average recharge and occurs at 25%. Click to enlarge]]

The '''capacitor recharge rate''' is a non-linear function—the rate at any given moment depends on how much energy is stored at that moment. Near zero and near full capacity, the recharge rate is very low, and it peaks around 25 percent.

A player by the name of “Dust Puppy” investigated the recharge rate in-depth and published his findings in [http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=116993 this thread] (dead link). Based on his experiments, he suggests that the formula for calculating recharge rate is:
{{NPCTableHead|Spawn (Serpentis)}}
{{NPCTableRow|Battleship|3|Core Flotilla/Vice Admiral|ewar= Damp}}
|}


[[File:EVE Cap Recharge Rate Diff Formula.png|center]]<!-- TeX: {\color{White}{dC\over dt}={2C_\mathrm{max}\over\tau}\left(\sqrt{C\over C_{\mathrm{max}}}-{C\over C_\mathrm{max}}\right)} -->
{{NPCTableHead|Spawn (Guristas)}}
{{NPCTableRow|Battleship|4|Pith Eliminator/Extinguisher|ewar= ECM}}
|}


...where:<br />
=== 3rd pocket ===
''C'' is your current capacitor level in GJ.<br />
Last pocket. This time Anire Scarlet has nowhere to run to so you can finish her.
''C<sub>max</sub>'' is your maximum capacitor level in GJ.<br />
''dC''/''dt'' is your current capacitor recharge rate in GJ/s. (Formally: The instantaneous rate of change of the capacitor charge ''C'' with respect to time.)<br />
''T'' is capacitor recharge time.


Capacitor recharge, therefore, peaks at 25%, and the advertised “Capacitor Recharge Time” is actually the time for the capacitor to go from dead empty to 98.7%, assuming no drains or boosts.
The initial defenders are from a random faction. The spawn's faction is based on the initial defender's faction, if Guristas, then the spawn will be Blood Raider, if Angels then Serpentis.<br>Anire Scarlet deals quite high damage for a battlecruiser.


Experimenting with this formula,<ref>https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AnYZ5Ix967m9dGR1YTY2emRGaXgyR3k4QlBnYng3SlE&hl=en</ref> it has been found that the peak recharge rate, without any effect of boosters or energy draining weapons, is indeed at 25% of capacitor capacity.


The formula can be also used to write capacitor level as function of time
Note: Scarlet's Station does not drop loot.

----
Bottom line for EVE capsuleers: remember that the recharge rate declines dramatically once it falls below 25% of capacity.  Therefore, if in a fight, leave yourself a margin of safety and consider escaping if it appears that you will soon fall below this amount.

<Pilot>, it's good to see you. I have something a little outside of the ordinary that needs taking care of. A personal business opportunity for the both of us, I guess you could say.

Have you ever heard of Anire Scarlet? Well, she's practically an urban legend among the local pirates. It seems any outlaw with a clone bay and rhetorical skills can amass a following these days. The sorts of degenerates that hang around this area are easily impressed too. It seems Anire has built quite a posse, but then, that could just be another one of the myths about her.

As for where you come in: all this attention has earned her a CONCORD bounty. I'd very much like to claim that ISK, <Pilot>, with your help. I've hired an undercover surveillance team to locate her, and they've had some luck turning up a lead. If you're able to follow it up and take her out then we can split the bounty money equally. The surveillance team found her flagship vessel, The Crimson Dawn. She is sure to be either inside it, or very close by. If you think yourself capable of eliminating her, then I'll trade you the coordinates.

What do you say? Do we have a deal?


Every pocket in this mission has ships from one randomly selected faction. Your fit should be able to fight with all of them. You can bring an extra Gate Key to skip warpin area or to give to fleet members.

The mission pockets are semi deadspace. This means that you can warp within a pocket grid but any warps from outside the pocket will land on the warpin area.

Blitz:

  • Bring your own gate key and skip first room.
  • Rush to acceleration gates and make your way to last room. All gates are open.
  • Kill Scarlet and return to agent.

Well, well. You're the one who's given my boys some trouble, I see. Don't worry, I'll make this as fast and painless as possible. Anire Scarlet is nothing if not merciful.

The gate deeper into the mission requires one Gate Key. The key is dropped by last battleship. The key is not consumed on use so you can keep it and skip fighting at warpin next time you get this mission.

you can warp in at distance to snipe.

At first some merchants are on the gate. The hostiles arrive soon. The hostiles are either Serpentis ships or Angel ships.

If you manage to kill her here you will be able to loot an +3 charisma implant from her wreck. Anire Scarlet is most vulnerable to EM/Thermal damage; it is advisable to preload EMP ammo or Mjolnir missiles before warping into the pocket.

This room contains initially either Serpentis ships or Serpentis and Guristas ships. Regardless of which are present first more Guristas battleships will spawn as reinforcement.
